*No Place Like Home* explores a lesser-known chapter in Canada's national narrative: the initial use of internment during the Great War under the War Measures Act.
By addressing the challenges of immigrant integration and belonging, Bohdan Kordan illustrates how legal, political, and cultural frameworks shaped perceptions of immigrants from enemy nations. He demonstrates how, amidst the economic, social, and political turmoil of war, the use of internment as a security measure and political decision profoundly impacted the lives of countless innocent individuals. *No Place Like Home* sheds light on new insights regarding Canadian internment and the government's role and accountability during wartime. By concentrating on the status of enemy aliens and the erosion of the military-civilian divide, the book also provides a wider social perspective of the era and delivers a critical evaluation of the diverse experiences within the camps.
Kordan expresses that the experience of internment, truly understood only by those who lived through it, can still resonate as a significant shared history, and he presents compelling arguments for the necessity of understanding and honoring this past.
